Mark Lane (DAB page)Mark Lane[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete.Tikiwont (talk) 10:36, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Improper disambiguation rears its ugly face - the proper disambiguation should be Mark Lane (disambiguation), not this! Ironically, target page is a dab page. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 20:32, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Deleted. -- JLaTondre (talk) 16:00, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. It's true that all can be said now about the subject is the names, but it doesn't really seem an appropriate target. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 20:16, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Firearm2Aimpoint CompM2[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete.Tikiwont (talk) 10:40, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Quiet unlogical redirect from template space to an article. Was tagged for T3 incorrectly and cannot be deleted as R3 (not recent), but I fail to see any use for it. SoWhy 09:16, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, meaningless and unlikely cross namespace redirect. Usrnme h8er (talk) 11:01, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. It makes no sense to redirect a template to a main namespace article. •••Life of Riley (talk) 17:02, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - makes no sense to search for a template and wind up with an article. B.Wind (talk) 06:17, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

P:Israel/NewWikipedia:WikiProject Israel/New articles[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete.Tikiwont (talk) 10:42, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cross namespace redirect into project space. There is a difference between portal space and project space. With the same justification I also nominate P:JEW/NewWikipedia:WikiProject Judaism/New articles B.Wind (talk) 07:10, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, no such thing as the "P" namespace. This is a common error which can be identified by typing "P:" into the search box. Usrnme h8er (talk) 11:03, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. For the want of a "W"... (WP:Israel/New and WP:JEW/New are valid as they are not CNRs.) 147.70.242.54 (talk) 19:02, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

List_of_Major_League_Baseball_Opening_Day_starting_pitchersTemplate:Opening_Day_starting_pitchers_by_team[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete both. — TKD::Talk 08:27, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cross namespace redirect from articlespace to template similar to the Opening Day starting pitchers redirect that was recently deleted per RfD. Citing a similar justification, I also nominate List of Opening Day starting pitchersTemplate:Opening_Day_starting_pitchers_by_team. B.Wind (talk) 06:55, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete templates are not a replacement for content. Usrnme h8er (talk) 11:00, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. --Tikiwont (talk) 10:45, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - searching for an article and getting redirected to a template instead? Not a good idea here. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 15:37, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Draco volans (zoology)Draco volans[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete.Tikiwont (talk) 10:44, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Superfluous, Draco volans is unambiguous cygnis insignis 06:32, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - while Draco and Volans are two constellations in astronomy, you will never see those two names together in this context. If someone is going to search with a disambiguation, it would most likely be Draco volans (reptile) or Draco volans (lizard)... but both are highly unlikely searches. B.Wind (talk) 07:52, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I moved Draco volans to Draco volans (zoology) because when I tried to create a direct internal link to Draco volans, it opened the disambiguation page. Now that you have undone the move, it works. So, just delete the redundant redirect. Systemizer (talk) 09:13, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Systemizer Tavix (talk) 22:20, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom Alpha 4615 (talk) 20:39, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiportal:Poland/Did_you_knowPortal:Poland/Did_you_know[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete, noting that this was part of a previous nomination resulting in no consensus and that there was also the redirect Wikiportal:Poland that i've deleted as well.Tikiwont (talk) 13:34, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There is no such thing in Wikipedia as Wikiportal space. This seems created in error. Citing the same rationale, I add the following:
